Recommended Fairing For Thule Aero Square Bar Roof Rack on 2009 Volkswagen Rabbit
Updated 07/26/2016 | Published 07/25/2016 >
Question:
Hi, I have a 2009 VW Rabbit using Thule Aero TH400XT roof rack. The wind noise is crazy high after 80km/h and some time even around 60 km/h without anything attachments. I was wondering what I can do to cut down the noise. If I need a fairing, which one and size would you recommend? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
Adding a fairing is one way to help decrease the wind noise you are experiencing with your Thule Aero Roof Rack # TH400XT with Square Crossbars. The fairing Thule recommends for your 2009 Volkswagen Rabbit is the AirScreen Fairing for Roof Racks, 44 Inches Long # TH82WV. Fairings are designed to help deflect the wind and cut down the noise experienced with square bar roof racks.
The AirScreen Fairing is designed to fit AeroBlade, AeroBlade Edge, and Square Bar roof racks. I've attached a review video of this fairing for you.
